Video Quality bad when publishing in Storyline

Hi, I have an eLearning module I created in Storyline. When I insert a video clip and publish it, the video is a horrible quality, yet when I view the video clip through Windows Media Play...

Looking for suggestions. I like Mike's work around but.... not sure it will work for me without a few additional steps.

I have a series of short animation videos that were created in PowerPoint with a 5 Inch X 5 Inch slide dimension. For these to be usable in my StoryLine project, they have to be set to 174 px X 174 px. Works fine but because of the compression at publication, the short animations loose quality and look fuzzy.

How do I start by converting my larger dimension (5 inch X 5 Inch) WMVs down to a smaller 174 px X 174 px MP4 so I can replace the published output videos with these new files? Am I just going to have to "suck it up" and recreate all of these from scratch in PowerPoint at a smaller size? If so, can anyone tell me what 174px is in inches so I can size the PowerPoint canvas correctly?
